Default P1 Owners Club Ditching Non-Owners

I've been a member for 12 years - and whilst I have never owned a P1, I have loved its adaptive Prodrive suspension and have enjoyed discussing it

Not any more

I had an email today asking for the build number of my P1...

As if

And if not - you're out

I should do for owning that

I wasn’t having a dig, but it is for P1 owners, leave them to it I say, snobbery imo.

What if you want to buy one?

Maybe there has been a car stolen, and the information was gained on the site.

I totally understand that they want it to owners only. So easy for car thieves to join a site see the spec and then wait for that person to sell an item.
before you know it they have all details and the car is stolen

UPDATE:

Seems it might have been a security update type thing - when I got down to it, I needed to update PW and there was an option for a non-owner

Not much traffic over there though... not many P1's left I suppose either
